No matter what you think about fur production - I happen to think that it is wrong, and would like to see it go away - breaking into a fur farm is illegal, and if you do it, you should be prepared to face the consequences.
More importantly though, if you support Peter and his "freeing" of fur mink, you're supporting a very destructive practice. Mink releases distrupt local ecosystems very severely, and introduces a voracious predator species into an area where they are either not present, or present in much smaller numbers prior to these releases.
Does he deserve 82 years in jail? Probably not. But think twice about who and what you're supporting.
